The wood just like most other things in life is 90% mental. You need to focus your energies more on making line in the first place than dealing with wood.

cracking the f*** up!!!

never WWF Smackdown during set! LOL

Someone said they don't think that paddling takes place anymore. I can tell you it does. I had a boyfriend in a fraternity and at their formal, they paddle their littles. Now I thought this would be a little tap on the butt, because the woman that the big brother brought also gets to paddle the little. So when I had to do it, I really wound up, and then just touched him with the paddle. The brothers booed me http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif Then, his big brother took the paddle and WHAM! I was like what the heck is this?!?! It does still happen.

Another story...a sister of mine was dating a pledge from another fraternity. One night he and one of his pledge brother snuck to our house at 11 pm and away from the house. Apparently, his pledge brother had been paddled so hard, they broke the skin on his butt and he was bleeding. We ended up taking him to the hospital, but the guys refused to report the incident.

Nobody needs to deal with "taking wood" to be a member of a fraternity.

All this talk about paddling...this could get kinky http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/eek.gif

LOL I'm mad at Billy for taking it there!! LOL

http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif AT A FORMAL?? interesting...

Bobby...You know. Like S&M...spanking http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

Well, that lowered the level...

Seriously though, there's nothing funny about this hazing stuff.

Spanking, etc. (any hitting) is probably assault and battery, and is against the law. So, we're potentially talking about arrest, fines, losing charters, etc.

Offending chapters had better wake the hell up and join this century. Just because it happened to some of us in the past doesn't make it OK today.

grrr It was joke. I know it was weak...but still. I was just trying to lighten things up. Trying to keep people calm...guess it didn't work.

Yeah we are laughing at the same thing. It just seems to me, that on a lot topics, people say pretty much the same thing, but get mad at each other cuz they don't say the exact same thing.

Well, I'm glad we all got that cleared up.

I like that idea of paddling at the formal. Hey, let's get everyone who's not bout it out of the way in a hurry.

Nothing wrong with taking a little paddling on Friday afternoons while the Bros (or sisters) sit around and drink some beer. It builds a better member

Many Are Kalled,
Few Are Chosen!!!

Life Itself is harder than a piece of wood,
you deal with life everyday. If you are chosen, whatever they plan to do to you kan't
be as hard as life!!!

If it komes to the wood, remember your mother or father probably put that leather on that ass several times. So suck it up and worry about the hardset tribulation, LIFE!!!!!

Since when does hitting someone make them a better member? What sort of warped logic is that?

I don't appreciate the comparison of this form of hazing to parentally-administered corporal punishment. There's a big difference. You all are (hopefully) mature enough to know the difference.
